How this record fits the market dataset
Status distribution
Condition text is present on 462 of 2224 current records. An empty condition field is interpreted according to the record type above; it is never converted into an unrestricted-use claim.
ASEAN market context
Complete regional annex dataset
Coverage version: ASEAN Cosmetic Directive annexes 2026-1, 22 June 2026
Annexes II, III, IV, VI and VII covering prohibited, restricted and positive-list substances.
Verification checklist
- Search all ACD annexes by name and identifiers.
- Apply product type, maximum level and warning conditions.
- Confirm the target member state's adoption and transition date.
- Complete the local notification and responsible-company requirements.
